3 Birthdays & Family Visitors

We love family visits! Even better, we love that we got to share the arrival of our little man with family from Colorado, Kansas and Ohio!

Grandpa and Grandma Rush came to town.

Tache and Papa came to town.

AND 

  Aunt Kristen, Cousins Sawyer, Nora and Kolter also came to town!

We were so excited to see everyone and spend the week with them too.

While they were down for the birth of our 4th, we celebrated 3 birthdays in one day!

Grandma Rush's birthday is November 4th. Aunt Kristen's birthday is November 14th and Morgan's birthday is November 30th!

I decided to make 2 cakes and a cupcake for the celebration. TONS of work. It may have been more practical to purchase a box cake or store bought BUT being pregnant and feeling a bit adventurous, I decided to venture out into trying a few new cake recipes. I will leave that to another post.

ONTO the celebrations. 

 Happy 54th to Grandma Rush

 

 

Kale and Grandpa Rush sure did light up each candle!!

 

Happy 3rd Birthday to Morgan

And Happy 32nd Birthday to Aunt Kristen! 

Of course I forgot to document Kristen's cake and everyone opening gifts but I assure you, it was pretty awesome.

It was really nice to be able to have everyone present for the birthday celebrations. It made for a fabulous evening :)
